Trying to order some running board truss rods for my 12. It seems that the vendors are out of stock. Does anyone know of who makes them and when they might be back in stock?
Thanks

Found the other two. Thanks!

John,
Sorry I don't. I know RV Anderson makes them though. It's a really good coil box. I was going to use this one, until a Kingston box came in my possession and I decided to use the Kingston box instead.

Tbird

Allan,
I sent you a email.
Thanks Mike

It sounds like perhaps some of your photos might be in a portrait view. If the photo is taken in portrait view you need to reorient the photo to landscape to upload it.

Tbird

Correct on the repos not having Made in USA. I searched for mine for 6 years and gave up then 1 finally popped up on eBay. Can’t say if what you have there is original or not.

This is the style that would be correct for late 1912-early 14.

Tbird

Here’s what you need to look for

The early caps with the Made In USA don’t show up very often, so if you see one grab it when you can

Carson, 09-14 the windshields changed during those years. They were brass framed from 09-12 and then went to painted steel. 09-Early 12 had equal sized windshield halves and later 12 had smaller upper half and larger bottom half. What year specific are you looking for? Is this for a touring, speedst...

Check with Bob at Bobs antique auto parts. Last I remember he had the spring clips for the rolled eye. I had to have them too and he had quite a few. Also with the clips it takes a long rivet to secure the clip to the rolled eye. Bobs also had those along with some NOS square head bolt to hold every...

So where are you guys getting your rims?

Looking for a couple parts for my carbide generator. My tank is what is pictured below. It is all brass and from what it looks like is a Corcoran and similar to JNO Brown. 3.jpg I am missing the tank plate seal. This is the metal part that bolts to the top of the tank. This is what I have. 2.jpg Thi...

Tbird

Larry, 2” or3”? I thought The 777 was 3”

Tbird

Thanks for all the feedback guys...Got 1. Thanks Rich! Need 3 more. Anyone else?

Tbird

So does anyone have any?

Tbird

Larry,
If I’m not mistaken the length of the stem does matter and the longest size you can use is 3” and the shortest is 2 3/4”?

Looking for some valve stems for Model T. I have some original Schrader rim nuts and covers that I’m using.

Tbird

Ok I’ve been looking over pictures and have been able to put most of the parts together. Can anyone verify if there is a gasket between the top tank and bottom?
Thanks

Tbird

I did figure out what those three pieces of steel are with a slight bend. The attach on the inside of the bottom tank under a lip. I’m not sure what function they serve though. Perhaps to keep the basket from jumping around? I saw this picture that helped me figure it out. Perhaps someone else can c...

I just acquired this brass Carbide Generator. It looks as though someone took it all apart to do a restoration on it. All the brass is straight. I've never seen one of these apart before. It is missing the basket for the carbide, and I think some sort of rubber gasket to seal the top and the bottom ...

I'm only interested in the mounting bracket as I need one for my Phinney Walker angle mount clock. I'm interested to know how it fastens to the back of the clock case

Larry here is the post that discusses the earlier bolts. Langs was carrying them in their 2019 catalog but no longer available. Item number 4806E. It was listed as bolt for 09-13 having a rounder style opening.

Anyone got some?

Tbird

Looking for the early style round fender eye bolts. I'm looking for the one that is on the right. Langs use to carry them but no longer do, I'm guessing that these were being reproduced at one time. Perhaps someone knows who was reproducing these or perhaps you have some. Give me a call or email me ...

The ones that I’m looking should be brass.

My 7 rivet has the plates behind the ears and the casting that goes completely around the hole.

Tbird

Interesting pan and the transition details. The front casting looks like the later narrow nose pans without the front casting going completely around the hole. Might be a really late 12 early 13 and or last of the 7 rivet arms being used up. Interesting

Here is a Phinney Walker rim wind with a angled case. How does something like this mount on the dash? It has a set screw on the bottom.

Larry,
Thanks a bunch for the info. The Rands windshield that I have does have the internal spring hinges and the smaller upper half. Looks like I'll clean them up and get them re-plated. It's great to know that these brackets are original to the windshield/era.
Mike

Tbird

Larry,
Interesting! Thanks for the picture. Now here's another mystery. The Rands windshield that came with these brackets is not your typical equal half windshield. It has a larger bottom half and smaller top half. So we're these brackets only unique to the 09-10 year?
Mike

Tbird

I'm just trying to sort out what is what. These brackets came with the Rands windshield which I was told was on a Model T. From what I've read so far is that Rands supplied the brackets with their windshield. The brackets that are repop are just one of many styles that we're available. These bracket...

Tbird

So I’m going through some parts and I have these brass dash to windshield brackets. I have two pair. They came with a Rands brass windshield.

According to the Speedo book by Russ the only part numbers on these are 12 A and 12 B. The potmetal ones have the name Stewart on them as well as different 4 digit numbers to help identify the year.

I purchased an original Rands windshield a while back and with it came the windshield support rods. I’ve seen other support rods with a bend near the top. These are completely straight all the way down. Can someone who has a 12 verify? One of the rods is heavier gauge brass tube as you can see in th...
